Abstract (en)

Embodiments of this application provide a method for an application to access a network, an apparatus, and a system, to incorporate an application into mobile communication network planning to improve flexibility of data exchange between the application and a mobile communication network. The method includes: A session management function entity receives a first message from an application instance access module, where the first message is used to request to establish a first connection for a first application instance; the session management function entity determines a first user plane function entity serving the first application instance; the session management function entity sends a second message to the first user plane function entity, where the second message includes identification information of the first application instance; the session management function entity receives a third message from the first user plane function entity, where the third message includes an establishment result of the first connection; and when the establishment result is a success, the session management function entity sends a fourth message to the application instance access module, where the fourth message includes a first address allocated by a core network element to the first connection.
